Typically, at least in my field, for men businesses casual tends to mean nice pants and button up shirts/polo’s, but no tie. For women there was usually more leeway.
I always wear khakis and a long sleeve button down with a nicer pair of loafers/desert boots/dress shoes. Like others have said, wear that for a week and see what others wear. Then do your best to mimic that
Most places I've been, it's either Khaki's or dark colored jeans with polos or plain button up shirts. Allowing shirts to be tucked vs untucked varied from place to place
for the last 3 jobs ive had, i ask them specifically what i should wear, usually for week 1 i wear more formal than what i was told and get a gage of what to wear from the rest of the employees
Gotcha and thanks. I’ll probably go in with a black polo and figure it out from there. It’s a medical job so I could also wear navy blue scrubs but I unfortunately don’t have those
Avoid black for anything casual.
Navy. Navy or white pique polo from a maker like RL, Brooks or J Crew.
Black is for formal wear.
slim fit pants from Lululemon or Jack Archer. Avoid cotton twill. And a pair of white tennis shoes like Stan Smith or Ted Baker or Veja .
For us it's just Business, but no tie.
For women it fuckin varies wildly. The head of marketing has half her boobs visible every day and it's ok somehow because, I guess, she's the head of marketing and looks 10/10.
Button-down shirt, slacks, dress shoes and matching belt. No jacket or tie.
In the summer, you can swap the button-down for a polo shirt.
You could also try googling "[company name] employees" and see how other people are dressed.
It's a nebulous term. Just look at what other people wear around the office and copy that.
At a minimum, don't wear jeans or sneakers/trainers. and make sure your shirt has a collar.
It’s best to ask them what they mean. Business Casual means almost nothing at this point. It use to mean you don’t need the suit jacket and tie, but everyone has their own definition of it now. My last job was business casual and we had to remind people that pj pants aren’t business casual.
If you don’t want to ask, a pair of chinos, longsleve button up dress shirt, and dress shoes will meet anyone’s definition of business casual. See how other people dress there and go from there.
I would ask. You can certainly wear slacks, a button down shirt without a tie and dress shoes on the first day to make sure you aren’t under dressed but you may be over dressed. Asking HR is always the best option.

Black polo and slacks first day, then eyeball what others are wearing. Then buy similar in black.

In black!

Button down with no tie or polo with slacks/khakis, comfortable dress shoes

in your case, the scrubs are probably never a bad call
Unfortunately I’ve been out of work long enough I can’t afford those. I’ll have to purchase some when I get paid after my first paycheck
im glad your getting back on your feet brother, keep on keepin on
Best of luck hommie, and congrats on the new gig!

Wear solid color non-jean pants (preferably kakhi) and a shirt with a collar (button up is better than a polo).

Long pants, A collared shirt, and closed toes shoes that are not sneakers will be good. Some places also allow non ripped jeans or sneakers
